As an important milestone to Indonesia OGP
Chairmanship 2013 – 2014, we are pleased to host the OGP Asia Pacific Regional
Conference on 6 – 7 May 2014 in Bali, Indonesia.

The OGP Asia Pacific Regional Conference,
the first in Asia since OGP’s inception, will serve as a platform for countries
and communities within the region to connect, share and learn from each other
on the benefits and opportunities across open and good governance practices.

Highlights of the Conference will include
Keynote Address by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, remarks by high level
speakers from both participating and non-participating OGP countries in Asia
Pacific, and interactive discussions with leading open government actors and
public innovators.

With the overarching theme “Unlocking
Innovative Openness: Impetus to Greater Citizen Engagement”, the Conference aims
to tap new potentials and reinvigorate efforts to support a wider application
of openness, good governance, and civic participation.
